The Bauer Vapor APX2 SE Traditional Hockey Shaft features many of the sought after technologies seen in the APX2 stick. The TeXtreme® Carbon Fiber is 20% lighter than traditional carbon and provides top notch pop too. The eLASTech® Resin System helps to preserve the pop life of the shaft while also preventing small cracks caused by slashes and pucks from growing. The signature Vapor flex profile is spearheaded by Bauer's Intelli-Sense Shot Technology that allows the upper handle to flex for powerful booming shots and still has a lightning quick shot release with it's low kick point.

Comments: This is a great stick i have the apx 2 se blade a p92 curve and shaft the stick put together is awesome i am 300 pounds and 6" 3" and i thought i would need the 102 flex i am glad i went with the 87 it is a pretty stiff stick the end of the shaft is rounded i tried a tapered butt end but it was too loose so i had to file down a standard butt end my slappers have never been this hard and accurate when i load up the shaft the puck shoots off like a rocket which makes my games easier as am a defenseman great stick would get it again.From: Scott, San Jose, CA
